AC-WC asphalt layer is a surface layer of flexible pavement construction that bears a direct load from the vehicle wheels. The increase in the number and load of traffic that occurs every year impacts road conditions and can cause damage. This requires analysis, repair and maintenance of roads for roads to function properly. The purpose of this study was to analyze road damage and provide alternative treatments for each road based on the type and level of damage that occurs. The method used was literature study, observation, documentation, and analysis with the PCI method. Observations were made on roads with class III flexible pavement in South Surabaya City. The results obtained were that the most dominant type of damage was crack damage, the level of road damage varies (low, medium, high severity) and there were different types of damage at the same point. The highest percentage and value of the damage were on Kembang Kuning Road and Pakis Tirtosari III Road. Based on the PCI method, the condition value of Dukuh Kupang XX Road was the lowest, at 25 (very poor). On Kembang Kuning Road and Pakis Tirtosari III Road maintenance work was needed, while Dukuh Kupang Road required road repairs.

Premature rutting due to high temperatures and heavy loads has been a major distress on flexible pavements in Pakistan. One of the main causes of this early rutting is the available asphalt binders, which are still graded by using penetration grading system. The penetration grading system is based on empirical tests and does not link with performance. To improve the quality of the flexible pavement and to avoid the premature rutting the performance based testings were conducting in laboratory. This study evaluated performance graded (PG) binders for use in pavement construction in the country. Five different penetration graded asphalt binder, typically available in the country were graded according to PG system. The performance grades (PG) for all binders were determined based on DSR and BBR results. The two same penetration grades ARL60/70 and NRL 60/70 have different PG grades. The two different penetration grades ARL60/70 and NRL 80/100 have same PG grade. The results show that the local binders are very soft due to which they performed poorly at high temperatures and prone to severe rutting.

The porous asphalt mixture is a new generation of flexible pavement that is able to pass water in the upper layer (wearing course) both vertically and horizontally. The porous asphalt layer effectively provides more safety, especially when it rains to avoid aquaplaning which causes roughness of the surface to be more rough. Therefore, at this time there are many studies on the use of alternative materials to replace the limited natural materials with materials that can be utilized. The results showed that porous asphalt mixture with used tire crumb as a fine aggregate mixture had an increase in flow value of 6.32% with a decrease in stability value by 27.52% and a decrease Marshall Quotient value at 31.82%. The testing of roughness is increased by 17.71% and Mu-Meter 24.14%. This research is effective in overcoming environmental problems which include processing tire waste of 3.03 tons for 1 km of road pavement construction work.

This paper reviews the application of expert systems in a flexible pavement (ESFP). It involves a brief introduction to expert systems explaining how technology plays a role in the creation of latest approaches to highway engineering, development, and maintenance. The paper provides an outline for possibilities of future researches. The purpose of this paper is to summarise the latest outcomes of researches related to the process of engineering, developing and implementing an expert scheme for flexible pavement construction. Moreover, the paper shows the necessity to develop an expert system that can help to control damage in tropical regions. The current expert system does not accommodate the needs for damages and repairs for tropical climates. The tropical region’s highway’s flexible pavements are based on the knowledge of experts who analysed and maintained highway pavements. This system enables the performance engineers to analyse, determine and customise information to help relevant parties during decision-making processes.
